It was interesting to see Evans on the pitch at the same time as Watkins, therefore easy to make a limited comparison of the two.
Watkins has long been heralded as the next big thing as a centre but injury has curtailed his progress to some degree.
Watching the two, it was clear that Evans has the better footwork and timing, he has a better instinct for reading attacking opportunities and is a better defender.
The two measured up pretty much the same in terms of physique and looked similar paced.
Its not hard to imagine them both playing centre for England in the next couple of years!
